NY Giants vs Tampa Bay Buccaneers Prediction

I’m on the Bucs here. I sometimes know, a QB change can spark a team, kind of like how it did for the Raiders earlier this season and the Panthers as well. However, the Giants are a lost cause and no QB change is going to save this team. The Bucs at least still have some hope, as the NFC South is still one of the most volatile divisions in football where anything can happen, and I think that they’re still more than alive at this point. Give me the Bucs.
